Have no idea why it would suddenly stall. Did you start it back up or did it start on it's own? The red light is going to always come on for a few seconds. What base map are you using? Have you ran the bike with 1-2 tanks of gas and your base map before trying the autotune?

No I went right to the auto tune because figured with my CFr there wasn't true map so just tried it.. The bike would stall then fire right back up ,but now After a while the bike seems to be doing way better and hasn't stalled on me again.. I applied an auto tune already and am getting some pops in 3rd gear but nothing horrible. Thx

It explains what to do in the instructions section of
the test mode.You have to have a base map to auto tune from. Send VH a email and they will help you select one.
